SEARCH FOR WINE / PRODUCER:   Advanced Search             Corino Giovanni   Piedmont, Italy           “Readers looking for up-front, sexy Barolos made with a Pomerol-like lushness should check out those from this La Morra producer (Parker).” "Giuliano Corino runs his small winery with excellent results, producing wines that faithfully reflect their provenance, always embodying the balance and reserve typical of Langhe folk." - Gambero Rosso Italian Wines 2009 Giuliano Corino makes unbelievably densely-fruited, seamless, velvety and layered wines from Nebbiolo, Barbera and Dolcetto; these wines are perhaps the most representative and exciting of all La Morra.   Corino has vineyard holdings in the choicest parcels of La Morra: “Arborina”, “Giachini” and “Rocche".  The “Vecchie Vigne” cuvee was most recently awarded 96 points by the Wine Spectator for the 2003 vintage; this sublime Barolo is a blend of small batches of Nebbiolo from the oldest vines in each vineyard, but mostly from the Giachini. The non-oak-aged Barbera and Dolcetto are delightful, utterly pure expressions of the varietals.   Farming Practices: Integrated insect and disease control is employed. Sulfur- and copper-based products prevalent. Only manure is used as fertilizer. Spontaneous cover crops (grass cover) are left between the rows of vines. There is minimum use of SO2 in wines in order to prevent oxidation.        Wines:         Note: * indicates limited item, please consult your sales rep for availability size formats other than 750ml may not contain wine information.         Barbera d'Alba, Giovanni Corino 2007     Barolo, 'Arborina', Giovanni Corino 2005     Barolo, 'Vecchie Vigne', Giovanni Corino 2003     Barolo, 'Vecchie Vigne', Giovanni Corino 2004     Barolo, 'Vecchie Vigne', Giovanni Corino 2005     Barolo, 'Vigna Giachini', Giovanni Corino 2003     Barolo, 'Vigna Giachini', Giovanni Corino 2005     Barolo, 'Vigna Giachini', Giovanni Corino 2006     Barolo, Giovanni Corino 2005                     PRINTABLE WINERY FACT SHEET | BACK TO SEARCH RESULTS         Copyright © 2007 Michael Skurnik Wines.
